I'm going to reinstall from scratch over my Debian partition (keep my LinuxFromScratch intact). Someone suggested that I look into portage2, and submit my changes to the team. What is the state of portage2 ? Is it in planning, in flux where changes can be appended or finished with no changes at all ? Can it be used in parallel with portage 1.x, or as standalone ? I want to bootstrap the system with FCC3.1. I've followed threads on it, and it seems that it is doable. I need a system with xfree86/kde3.0.1 (for the Hebrew support), anyone having problem with those and gcc3.1 ? If it is possible I'd like to keep my kde from cvs, I have seen Dan's kde3-pre ebuilds which includes cvs, are they still usable ? Form what I've seen portage2 needs gcc3.x. thanks -- Meir Kriheli
